ANAHEIM--Denny McLain both pitched and batted his
way to a 7-2 victory over California for his 29th win of the
season.
McLain at the plate drilled three hits and drove in two
runs while scattering nine hits from the mound and going
the route for the 26th time this season. He struck out 12
while narrowing the magic number for the Tigers to nine
games.
Detroit jumped in front, 1-0,,in the first inning on
a double by outfielder Jim Northrup and a single by Willie
Horton. They then added another run in the third, when
McLain tripled and came home on Dick McAuliffe's single,
stretching the score to 3-0.
The Tiger bats exploded with four runs in the fourth
inning to put the game out of reach running the score to 6-0,
with McLain's bases-loaded single driving in two of the runs.
Letting up slightly with a six run lead, McLain yielded
roundtrippers to Rick Reichart and Tom Satrino in the sixth
inning to lose his shut-out bid.
The Tigers added their final run in the top of the ninth

Big Ten champs, a trip to the

the easy things. Easy because no-'

an Olympic berth. Jim Ryan, Kansas' star miler, placed third just
ahead of Kutchinski.

when Northrup doubled home
centerfielder Mickey Stanley.
McLain now seems assured of
becoming the first pitcher since
Dizzy Dean to win 30 games in a
season. By virtue of his 12 strike-
outs last night, he is also within
17 of Hal NewHauser's Tiger sea-
son strikeout record of 275.
McLain received a standing
ovation from the crowd of over
22,000 when he fanned Roger Re-
poz to end the game.
Meanwhile, Baltimore was rain-
ed out at Washington, putting
them 8/2 games back of league-
leading Detroit.

greats Taylor, Groza retire

play, adding an extra dimension
to the Indiana attack.
The power of fullback T e r r y
Cole will be missed this year but
coach Pont expects great things
from sophomore Hank Pogue.
Pogue, a good blocker runs the
100 in 9.9.
The Hoosiers will probably be
hurting in the defense department
this year. Pont lost three line-
backers, two tackles, and a good
pass defense. Indiana's defense
will probably not be one to instill
terror among the enemy. One
bright spot falls on the helmet of
senior linebacker Jim Sniadecki.
Last year he made 84 tackles
which Pont called "remarkable,
considering opponents consistent-
ly avoided his side of the field"..
Last year, aided by a tremend-
ous desire to ' win, the Hoosier
team never slowed. But they suf-
fered relatively few injuries, and
they might be less fortunate this
season. If a key man like Gonso
is hurt, the roof could cave in.
Gonso, a fairly small man, is fac-
ed with a missing middle line.
This alone should keep him run-
ning, and a moving target isrlike
a one-winged duck in October.
A favorable schedule will aid
the Hoosier charge. Conspicuous
in its absence from Indiana's
Western Conference line-up, is
Ohio State, a predicted Big Ten
contender and powerhouse.With:
its hardest games coming at the
end of the season (Minnesota and
Purdue), the Hoosiers may have
some trouble in keeping b o t h
spirit and body in peak perform-
ance.

only three passes all last year.
Perhaps Indiana's foremost
weakness will be the middle of the
offensive line, due to the gradua-
tion of center Harold Mauro andI
guards Bob Russell and Gary Cas-
sells. This could cause the Hoos-
iers to run primarily to the out-
side. John Isenbarger, the Indiana
Davy Crocket, will cover most ofI
the frontier ground.
Pont feels Isenbarger is only
a half-year, away from being in
the class of a Keyes or a Simpson.
Last year he led the Hoosiers
in rushing with 579 yards and a
4.3 average. Isenbarger is a 1 s o

NEW ORLEANS, La.-The New
Orleans Saints announced the re-1
tirement yesterday of fullback
Jimmy Taylor, saying he "will
prbably go down in history as
Louisiana's g r e a t e s t football
player."
Taylor will continue his asso-

''It is with deep regret and a
sense of great loss that Taylor's]
long playing career has come to
an end," said John W. Mecom Jr.,
owner of the club. "But it per-
haps is fitting that he played out
his career in his home state where'
he gave leadership and stability to

Taylor will be 33 in 10 more

"You con learn more from people thtan you can ever learn from books
and papers." -Anon.
Probably not a startling revelation when you think about it. The ex-
change of ideas between people is far more educating than a text can ever
be. And that's what fraternities today are offering. People and ideas. Com-
mon people. Uncommon people. People from every walk of life. Conserva-
tive ideas. Liberal ideas. Ideas from an engineer, a philosophy major, a phy-
sicist, and a pre-med student. People. Ideas. Put the two together and you
